3 2月 2025 A THIRD VENDÉE GLOBE FOR ALAN ROURA. HUBLOT CELEBRATES THE SAILOR'S INCREDIBLE TENACITY Each Vendée Globe is unique. Each race presents a new challenge. A trip around the world, a new page in history, and the constant desire to go ever further. Alan Roura and Hublot share this obsession: pushing the limits, striving for excellence, writing the future, again and again. Giving everything you have, to the very end. Pushing hard right to the last mile, Alan Roura fought relentlessly, battling the elements to get his IMOCA Hublot to the finish line. A feat that perfectly illustrates what it means to perform at the extreme: managing every detail, pushing your limits, reinventing yourself from one moment to the next. This 2024-2025 edition has proved this once again: extreme conditions, technical challenges, snap changes to the weather… everything can shift at a moment's notice. Despite years of experience, you have to start from scratch, rethink and reinvent everything. In watchmaking, as at sea, overcoming challenges can never be taken for granted! The Swiss flag is flying in the channel of Les Sables d'Olonne once again! This Monday, 3rd February 2025 at 12h57'48'', Alan Roura crossed the finish line of the 2024-2025 Vendée Globe in 18th position, completing his third solo, non-stop, unassisted circumnavigation of the world. At the helm of the IMOCA Hublot, he has improved on his previous race time by almost 10 days, covering 28,553 miles in 84 days 55 minutes and 48 seconds, at an average speed of 14 knots. HUBLOT'S DNA: ALWAYS IN SEARCH OF THE EXTREME Hublot celebrates not just the victories, but the road travelled. Like the sailor, each Hublot watch is born of a challenge, a desire to question everything, a quest for perfection that never stops. The finish line is what we remember, but this line could never be crossed without all the work that goes before: research, development, preparation, experience, learning, will and passion. These similarities unite the Swiss brand and the Swiss sailor. LE VENDÉE AND ALAN Setting out from Les Sables-d'Olonne on 10th November last year, the skipper overcame abrupt changes in the weather, energy problems, sail and rudder damage, enduring some particularly extreme weather conditions in the South Seas, and pushing his limits day after day. Thanks to meticulous management of his boat and his unfailing tenacity, he was able to successfully complete this extraordinary challenge, once again cementing his place among the elite of ocean sailors. At 31 years old, the Swiss sailor has now completed his third Vendée Globe; his first circumnavigation was achieved 8 years ago, at the age of just 23. A new challenge that paves the way for many more to come. “I'm immensely proud to have completed my third consecutive Vendée Globe. During every edition, and despite the experience I've accumulated, I know that everything can change in a moment. Each race is an opportunity to push my limits and continue to learn. Nothing can be taken for granted. You have to constantly adapt, accept the unexpected and fight, day after day. Thank you to my team, my partners, and to Hublot, who understands the challenge represented by the perpetual quest for success, and all those who have supported me on land and at sea. Without them, this adventure would not be possible.” ALAN ROURA SAILOR & AMBASSADOR “Congratulations on your third Vendée Globe, Alan! Devoting yourself to a race like the Vendée Globe is like designing the next iconic watch: you need motivation, perseverance and courage. Each edition, like each new watch creation, is a challenge where nothing can be taken for granted. We share in Alan's passion, a passion which overcomes every challenge and drives us to give our very best, again and again.” JULIEN TORNARE HUBLOT CEO 最新ニュース MP-14 オリジン by ジェフ・クーンズ クーンズ×ウブロ：変革の上に築かれた2つの世界 ニューヨーク、2026年9月16日 – ウブロとジェフ・クーンズは、多面的なコラボレーションを発表し「クラシック・フュージョン バルーン ドッグ」と「MP-14 オリジン by ジェフ・クーンズ」という2つの特別なタイムピースを同時に発表します。日常的なものを特別な存在へと昇華させてきたウブロとクーンズのパートナーシップにより、高級時計製造と現代アートの融合が実現しました。サファイア、チタニウム、そしてジェムセッティングを施したホワイトゴールドで構成された「MP-14 オリジン」は、ハイジュエリーと高級時計製造を融合し、宇宙の誕生をミクロなスケールで表現しています。まるで、宇宙が誕生し、広がり始めるその瞬間を捉えたかのようです。この先見的なタイムピースは、ブランド初の自動巻きセンタートゥールビヨンを搭載し、ウブロの時計製造技術における大きな進化を示しています。世界限定30本のこのモデルは、宇宙を表現するという枠を超え、その誕生そのものを描き出しています。 詳細を表示する 「クラシック・フュージョン バルーン ドッグ by ジェフ・クーンズ」 アートへと膨らむ「時」 2026年9月16日 ニューヨーク –日常のものを特別な存在へと昇華させてきたウブロとジェフ・クーンズ。二つの 先見的な存在が、時計製造と現代アートを融合し、オブジェ、時間、そしてシンボルを文化的なアイコンへと変える 革新的なコラボレーションを発表します。鏡面仕上げのステンレススチール、そしてレッドまたはブルーでアルマイト加工された3つのエディションで展開される「クラシック・フュージョン バルーン ドッグ byジェフ・クーンズ」は、フォルムに新たな存在感を与え、時間を形あるものへと変えるタイムピースです。 詳細を表示する 最新情報をメールで受け取る ウブロの最新ニュースをお届けします。 サインアップ
